    Please note: the submission deadline has been extended. We are now
    accepting proposals through November 12, 2001, for the Modern and
    Contemporary Drama sessions of the 7th Annual GES Conference to be held
    February 22-23, 2002 at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas.

    Also, our Keynote Speaker at our Saturday Luncheon will be Dr. Cheryl
    Glenn, and we are thrilled she's accepted! She will address the
    conference theme: Past and Future Perspectives: Negotiating our
    Changing Field.

    Cheryl Glenn is an Associate Professor of English and Women's Studies at
    the Pennsylvania State University. A founding member and past president
    of the Coalition of Women Scholars in Rhetoric and Composition, Glenn
    received the Elizabeth P. Richie Distinguished Professor Award while at
    Oregon State University. She obtained her Ph.D. from Ohio State
    University. Her research interests include rhetorical history and
    theory; composition theory and practice; feminist and gender theories;
    medieval and renaissance literatures.

    While I am especially interested in abstracts/proposals which address
    the following suggested topics, abstracts dealing with any aspect of
    Modern and Contemporary Drama are welcome and will be considered:

    Irish and British and Drama: Synge, O’Casey, etc.;
    European and Continental Drama: Strindberg, Ibsene, Pirandello,
    Hauptmann, Sartre, etc.;
    American Drama: Eugene O’Neil, Tenessee Williams, Arthur Miller, Edward
    Albee, etc.
    These areas are only general in nature and for specific authors. All
    essays that fall in the general category of Contemporary and Modern
    Drama are welcomed. Essays that discuss minority issues, gender, and gay
    issues are also encouraged.

    E-mail submissions are strongly encouraged; please put "GES Conference
    Proposal" in the subject line for all electronic submissions.
